THE GENIAL WU
Peking. April 30. The Southern Viceroys recommend Wu Ting Fang,
the Chinese Minister at Washington, for appointment no the head of the now
Dureau of Foreign Laws. There has been strong opposition nmong conserva
tive Chinese officials to Wu Ting Fan?, Chinese Minister at Washington, re
taining a foreign mission. Those who take this view consider that his popu
larity abroad Is a proof that he It not sufficiently loyal to the Interests of
China. As a member of the Board of Foreign Laws his linguistic and legal
attainments could be utilized under the eye of the Government.

take. The commute In charge of the Mer
chants' Day proposition discussed ut
the last meeting of the Merchants' As
sociation, is hard at work trying to
make arrangements so that they will
be able to report favorably at a meeting
or the organization to be held on the
ICth Inst.
One of the members hns been assign
ed the work of conferring with the
Jockey Club for the purpose of arrang
ing for races to take place during the
season of the merchants' doings In the
city. Another member has been as
signed the work of consulting with the
steamship companies with reference to
vJ reduced rates from Island ports and
still another has charge of the work of
conferring with the Commissioner of
Agriculture and Forestry with refer
ence to the agricultural phase of the
scheme. Progress has been made along
all these lines, although the members
4 of tho committee are not yet rendy to
jeport definitely on any nrrangements.
W. W. Dlmond, one oMhe members
j the committee, was seen today, and
In answer to a number of questions,
replied as follows;
"We have no intention whatever ol
arranging for a 'fiesta' us has been sug
gested. Such a thing would be fool
hardy for we haven't the money to ba

thoro shall he an agricultural fair and
that there Bhall be a merchants' pavi
lion erected In which booths can be set
aside for the merchants for display pur
poses.
"While wc have no definite nrrano-
incnts as yet and consequently cannot
give you nny definite outline of what
It Is proposed shall be done, wc think
that the fair, If carrled,out, should cov
er a period of three or four days, cen
tering on the Fourth of July.
"People could come here on steam
ers arriving from the other Islands on
Saturday and Sunday and could remain
the week In Honolulu, returning the
following week on the steamers leaving
Tuesday,
"We want to have horse rnces If this
Is possible and we want to have all tho
attractions possible. Of course, the
boat rnces fall on the Fourth of July
and theae events cc'i 1 be made a fea
ture of the day. a big excursion down
the road forming one of the pleasures
of the day.
"There Is one all-Important feature
In this whole thing. We must get
good rates from the steamship com
panies or wc can go no further and tho
affair that the Merchants' Association
has planned will fall to tho ground. We
are In hopes that the steamship com
yanles win look at the matter in the
light we see it and will do a great deal
toward making the agricultural fair a
success. We believe that It Is all Im
portant that something of the kino
should take place in the city ever
year. II will give business u big boom
and will result favorably for buslnest
Interests all over the Islands."
Oeorge W. Smith, unother membei
of the committee, said substantially the
same thing ns Mr. Hmonil and emia-
sized tnc importance or concessions no
Ing made by the steamship companies
If the fair Is to be can led to a success
ful termination. He also stated that
the fiesta plan was altogether out if
the question. "We are too poor to at
tempt anything of the kind at the pret
erit time," said Mr. Smith.
Continuing, he said: "Ilesldes Inter
esting tho steamship companies and the
Joskey Club In the plan that wo have In
mind, wo Intend to see the hotel keep
ers and nsk them to give us reduced
rates so that we will be able to hold
this out to the people of the other Isl
ands as an additional Inducement to
come to Honolulu to the fair."
